Lance Knows about My Duplicity

The avenue leading up to South Manor was quiet and dark. Those upright citizens had been in their houses, those not-so-upright dwellers were scattered in the unlit alleys. No nightlife was entertained in the entire Council's jurisdiction. It was probably the design provision made deliberately by the project leaders.

Therefore, when Ignos Fire informed his lord earlier in the afternoon, Lance Hua told Chiaki that his right-hand man was coming, so her men would not need to search this person roaming on the street with his tall horse at night after the curfew.

Being not held up by security measures from the capital city which fell under Chiaki's rule, 

Ignos Fire descended from his war horse looking gallant and not travelworn a bit. His blond hair was tied in a high ponytail like Lance's, a navy blue coat covering his neck until his calves. 

He walked up past the manor's gate to greet his master that evening after a long journey from the Northern region.
